| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC P. S. I am Canadian. We all dive right into the water/deep end. The water is way too cold to wade in slowly. LOL | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Hello, I hear you, Mapman, and I agree. Here's the thing — with Guido's wise words — it seems that the DAC and amp will do splendidly on their own without the immediate need of a pre-amp. It might be fine forever that way. So, the only thing missi... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Thank you Charles, and everyone on this discussion. You helped me more than you know. I did take instruction and advice to heart. You are a great bunch and I am so grateful I started this in the first place. It is my first time doing this and it h... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC PERFECT!!! Thanks Almarg! R | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Hello,Thanks, that helps. You see, there is a 1 m Wel for sale also. But, of course, it is a bit more money. Other than resale, there is no point spending more as far as I can see. I trust the cable will be fine. I will get it, connect it, and lea... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Hi Almarg, Would you mind translating this for me? Are you saying that .5 m cable is not good in terms of sound? And what do you mean by 'but given its very short 0.5 meter length I'd be hesitant to read too much into such a finding'? I am not sur... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Inna, you are too funny. | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC I offered 1500 for the .5 m Wel and he accepted it. | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Folkfreak, can you tell me what WBY means? And would it make sense then to go with the Blue yonder which is 1 m over the .5 m Wel? | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Needless to say, the Devialet trade is terrible. I totally agree. And if I gave the impression otherwise, I am sorry for the confusion.Folkfreak (I really like your user name), the choice is Blue Yonder 1 m for less $$ and newer cable, or Wel .5 m... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Sorry, that was very confusing. I see a pair of Wel on sale used elsewhere for a lot less money. They are older but does that matter? It was before the new connectors were implemented. I did not mean trade the Devialet for cables -- that would be ... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC My dealer loves them with the Wilson's. I think this seems to be a good deal — used — and so if I didn't like them — for whatever reason, I could always sell them again. | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC Hello,Okay, so explain this to me. My dealer says that AQ Wel and/or Blue Yonder costs more than $8000 CAD for a 2 m XLR interconnect. And on Audiogon there is a .5 m Wel with dbs for $1895 and a Blue Yonder for $1360. Now are they 'real' of 'fake... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC One thing I do agree with is that "we are headed in the wrong direction". While I do listen and learn and value all of your suggestions, in the end it is my ears and my budget at play. So, there have been many suggestions given throughout this 9 p... | |
| Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC I could listen just to hear what it sounds like? Will I even be able to tell? |
